Heaven Is My Forever Home
Devotionals for 2021
Week 45

I recently read a quote from a book entitled The Truth About Heaven written by Pastor John MacArthur. The quote goes this way:

In the ancient world, the two most important buildings of any national capital were the palace and the temple. They represent civil and spiritual authority. In Heaven the centrality of the throne of God emphasizes both His sovereignty and His worthiness to be worshipped. All Heaven is His palace, and all Heaven is His temple.

In Revelation 3:12 Christ says:
He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name.

All the overcomers here are all the true believers in Christ. Every person is a pillar of the temple ceremonially inscribed with three names. Wow, what a vision, what a hope, what a mystery, what a joy, to us, of future worship and wonder!
